Cat App written using mobile technologies (Ionic & Angular)

I always thought I disliked web-dev and mobile development - How wrong I've been! It's been geniunely one of the most exiting projects I've done in a long time.
I'd have used infinite scroll views that are bundled with ionic, but I couldn't gotten them to work - Many other people were having issues so I assume it's not a "me" problem.
2 RESTful API's were used in this project.
